Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about sex toys with brief, easy to understand answers:

Q. Do a lot of people use sex toys?

A. Yes! As a matter of fact, sex toy sales are up in the millions globally every year and those stats are growing. So, if you are seriously considering trying sex toys but wondering if this makes you some kind of perv—no worries. Sex toys are not the least bit unnatural.

Q. Are sex toys intended for couples sex only?

A. No! Many people don’t have or for various reasons, don’t even want, a sexual partner. Does this mean they must try to eliminate all sexual feelings and live a sexless existence? Of course not. There are sex toys on the market for men and women alike that are specifically designed to be used all by your lonesome.

Q. Where do you buy sex toys?

A. Sex toys are widely available in many parts of the world. You can find them in traditional brick and mortar stores, buy them at sex toy parties, or shop for them online.

Q. Aren’t sex toys mainly for females?

A. Not at all! In fact, there are quite a few sex toys such as “cock rings” that stretch to fit snugly around the penis and help to maintain a rock hard erection, butt plugs and more that are designed for male use.

Q. Are dildos and similar sex toys sanitary?

A. They are if you clean them regularly. Most sex toys such as dildos, vibrators, butt plugs and more can be cleaned with soap and water.

Q. Are there any sex toys that you can use under water, such as in the bath or pool?

Q. Do most men feel threatened by their female partner getting pleasure from sex toys?

A. Some men report that they do feel threatened a bit by their partner using sex toys because it makes them feel as though their own role is diminished. But many men—or possibly even most men—are all for anything that jazzes up the sexual act and don’t feel threatened in any way by the use of sex toys.
